Search guest post outreach and you will find roughly two hundred email templates. Twelve here, fourteen there, twenty in the next one. Almost nobody is short of templates.<\/p>\n

Yet the average link building outreach campaign still gets an 8.5% reply rate, and polls of working SEOs put the actual conversion to a placed link at 1% to 5%. If templates were the constraint, that number would have moved years ago.<\/p>\n

The constraint is somewhere else. It is in which sites you pitch, whether you can reach a human at all, and what happens after the first email goes unanswered.<\/p>\n

This guide covers those three, with the templates included where they belong rather than as the whole article. If your outreach problem is broader than links, outbound lead generation<\/a> covers the same failure at a larger scale.<\/p>\n
